New submission from David Rebbe <ic3m...@gmail.com>:
enum.auto() By default, the initial value starts at 1. Per the documentation here: https://docs.python.org/3/library/enum.html#enum.auto This doesn't really follow expected behavior in majority of programming languages nor python. Most will expect starting value to be zero. I personally skipped over this as I've never seen an enum start at 1 in any language before. Excuse my ignorance if this is more common place then I realize. I propose an optional argument to the class to allow different starting values: enum.auto(0) ---------- messages: 400210 nosy: David Rebbe2 priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: enum.auto() starts with one instead of zero versions: Python 3.10, Python 3.11, Python 3.6, Python 3.7, Python 3.8, Python 3.9 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue44993> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
